The most expensive transformers collectibles (mps and titans) have been in windowless boxes for years so I dont think it matters.

I definitely have a few things in box/on card that I wouldn't if I couldn't see the item. But at the end of the day, I'd rather eliminate the plastic.

Maybe we'll get glass windows instead of plastic!

There are lots of plant-based plastic alternatives that they can use. I believe in some of the articles they talk about using bioplastics.

I'm curious what things will look like. I can't imagine the nicer retail toys like studio series doing the kind of "ope " style of the cyberverse stuff. I'm also leery of no ability to see the toys which they seem to acknowledge. Be interesting!

I would be worried I'd be buying someone's returned item with an action figure in it.
On some of the figures I have been on the fence. Seeing them in person has swayed my decision a few times. Hard to do that with box art

Yes. There have been quite a few toys that, when I finally saw them in real life,even in the package, looked much better than the stock photos and toyfair photos. A few that looked worse. It definitely makes an impact.

I personally like to check the paint apps while the bots are in box. I also look for R/L hands and other more obvious things like missing heads etc. I sure hope if they don't let you see what you're buying that they bump the QC up a bit overall.
